On 32-bit it's best to use a %cs: prefix to access memory where the other segments may not bet set up properly yet. On 64-bit it's best to use a rip-relative addressing mode. Define PARA_INDIRECT() to abstract this and generate the proper addressing mode in each case.

Jan Beulich points out that vmalloc_sync_all() assumes that the kernel's pmd is always expected to be present in the pgd. The current pgd construction code will add the pgd to the pgd_list before its pmds have been pre-populated, thereby making it visible to vmalloc_sync_all(). However, because pgd_prepopulate_pmd also does the allocation, it may block and cannot be done under spinlock. The solution is to preallocate the pmds out of the spinlock, then populate them while holding the pgd_list lock. This patch also pulls the pmd preallocation and mop-up functions out to be common, assuming that the compiler will generate no code for them when PREALLOCTED_PMDS is 0. Also, there's no need for pgd_ctor to clear the pgd again, since it's allocated as a zeroed page.

Add hooks which are called at pgd_alloc/free time. The pgd_alloc hook may return an error code, which if non-zero, causes the pgd allocation to be failed. The hooks may be used to allocate/free auxillary per-pgd information. also fix: > * Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> wrote: > > include/asm/pgalloc.h: In function ‘paravirt_pgd_free': > include/asm/pgalloc.h:14: error: parameter name omitted > arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S: In file included from > arch/x86/kernel/traps_64.c:51:include/asm/pgalloc.h: In function ‘paravirt_pgd_free': > include/asm/pgalloc.h:14: error: parameter name omitted Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Cc: xen-devel <xen-devel@lists.xensource.com> Cc: Stephen Tweedie <sct@redhat.com> Cc: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Cc: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

vmalloc_sync_all() is only called from register_die_notifier and alloc_vm_area. Neither is on any performance-critical paths, so vmalloc_sync_all() itself is not on any hot paths. Given that the optimisations in vmalloc_sync_all add a fair amount of code and complexity, and are fairly hard to evaluate for correctness, it's better to just remove them to simplify the code rather than worry about its absolute performance.

I would suggest to remove the "experimental" status from Kdump. Kdump is now in the kernel since a long time and used by Enterprise distributions. I don't think that "experimental" is true any more.

Applies on top of the previous patch: x86 boot: add code to add BIOS provided EFI memory entries to kernel Instead of always adding EFI memory map entries (if present) to the memory map after initially finding either E820 BIOS memory map entries and/or kernel command line memmap entries, -instead- only add such additional EFI memory map entries if the kernel boot option: add_efi_memmap is specified. Requiring this 'add_efi_memmap' option is backward compatible with kernels that didn't load such additional EFI memory map entries in the first place, and it doesn't override a configuration that tries to replace all E820 or EFI BIOS memory map entries with ones given entirely on the kernel command line.

Fix some problems with (and applies on top of) a previous patch: x86 boot: show pfn addresses in hex not decimal in some kernel info printks Primarily change "0x%8lx" format, which displays with a right aligned space filled hex number (spaces between the "0x" prefix and the number), into "%0#10lx" format, which zero fills instead of space fills, and which uses the printf flag '#' to request the "0x" prefix instead of hard coding it. Also replace some other "0x%lx" formats with "%#lx", making use of the '#' printf flag again.

This is a preparatory patch for the next patch in series. Moves some code from e820_setup_gap to a new function e820_search_gap. This patch is a part of a bug fix where we walk the ACPI table to calculate a gap for PCI optional devices. v1->v2: Patch on top of tip/master. Fixes a bug introduced in the last patch about the typeof "last". Also the new function e820_search_gap now returns if we found a gap in e820_map.

that range is from find_e820_area, so don't try to use end_pfn to see if out of boundary...use table_top instead to avoid possible strange result while cross the boundary... also change early_printk to printk, because init_memory_mapping is after early param parsing, and console=uart8250 already working at that time.

... so can we use mem below max_low_pfn earlier. this allows us to move several functions more early instead of waiting to after paging_init. That includes moving relocate_initrd() earlier in the bootup, and kva related early setup done in initmem_init.
